It doesn't matter, since once you install it you can just delete that file. /tmp works well for this sort of thing.

There is a script that does this, it's in the vmware.zip(the plugin) file,
vmware/scripts/NagiosXI-VMWare.sh
This is unzipped on the server, I don't have the path in front of me but it's something like /usr/loca/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/vmwar/scripts/NagiosXI-VMWare.sh

Yeah, this is why the documentation for this is still in progress.
The script mmestnik mentions automates many stages of this for people to use eventually, although for where you are already it may be easier to just work around things yourself. At your current point, you would need to run the following yum command to take care of the dependencies you mentioned previously:
Code: Select all
yum install -yq perl-Class-Accessor perl-Config-Tiny perl-Math-Calc-Units perl-Params-Validate
Once that's done you can run the rpm command from before and it should work. Then you'll be ready to upload the wizard, and there are instructions for that on the same page mentioned to get the wizard from.

that all seemed to work fine - thanks for your help.
i used the wizard to define a simple cpu check against one of my esx hosts and whilst the host is in host view there is no check defined for the cpu..
maybe i should just wait untill you guys wrap it up.
